eWEEK Podcast: Saving Money with Wireless Networks


Happy new year! What, if any, IT resolutions did you make for 2009? If one resolution is to reduce costs or do more with the wireless network that you have, then listen to eWEEK’s Mike Vizard in a recent interview (“Saving Money with Wireless Networks”) with Cisco’s Ben Gibson on how wireless networks in the enterprise pose a cost savings opportunity for IT managers.

The discussion covered many topics, including:
- investing in wireless for saving money
- performance and flexibility with 802.11n wireless networking
- unified communication and asset tracking in healthcare
- voice and video application enabled by the reliability that 802.11n offers
- wireless security/wireless intrusion prevention system (wireless IPS) and WLAN management
- mobile device ecosystem
- voice over WLAN and call routing
- presence and location applications
- convergence of network management
- deploying pervasive wireless for advanced mobility apps
- financing options to fund wireless/mobility projects
